Fenglin Tianxia – Queen with a Thousand Pets

Days passed by in a hurry, and the Fengshen arrived in Karakot, just four months after leaving.

Oh, this is really a shotgun exchange for a cannon! Ling Qingyu teased unconsciously as he looked at Ai Xi, who was serious and gorgeously dressed in front of him.

Hey, please stop teasing me, I'm almost choked to death. Ai Xi's serious face immediately fell.

Glancing at Alina who was sitting next to her, leaning leisurely on the soft pillow while being served, Ling Qingyu smiled and said, You have achieved what you wanted, so what worries do you have.

The two of them spoke in Dazhou dialect, with decent smiles on their faces, and nodded to Alina from time to time. Alina didn't understand what she heard, so she simply got up and went to the yard.

Hey, stop giving me nonsense, here's what I want! Ling Qingyu said with a straight face as soon as Alina left.

Now Holderli has become the king of Nanbi Kingdom. I am just the king's son-in-law, and I am still a son-in-law who can no longer walk around. Where can I find so many goods for you! You see, I only collected two in total. One hundred thousand catties, I asked my friends to buy this from other territories. Ai Xi also said with a grimace.

Where's the goods in Xie Lian's hands? Ling Qingyu asked. As soon as he arrived at the port, he heard that Nanbi Kingdom had changed its king and Calicut's taxes had also increased by 10%. Ling Qingyu came to find Ai Xi. I hope I can save some tax, but I didn't expect that I can't save a penny on tax. There are not that many goods yet. Fortunately, she is not shipping this time.

Xie Lian made a deal with Hall, and he succeeded Su Er as the patriarch of their family. However, I heard that he went to sea for Dazhou a few days ago, and he should have taken most of the goods with him. Ai Xi frowned. Frowning.

Can you contact his trading company? I want the rest of his goods. Ling Qingyu pondered for a moment and said.

I advise you not to, those of his men are not easy to get along with, and now Hall takes money very seriously, so you'd better leave quickly, otherwise, you'll be in trouble if he finds an excuse to detain you, Essie advised. .

Does he want to go to war with Zhu Luo? What can he do with so much money? Ling Qingyu said with a smile, but saw Ai Xi's expression change. She was stunned for a moment and asked, Do you really want to fight Zhu Luo?

Two hundred thousand jin is enough for you. I won't charge you more. Just give me 30,000 taels of gold. Ai Xi tilted his head and said.

The price was more than a little expensive. Ling Qingyu sighed inwardly, then stood up and said, Okay, let's trade right away. I'll ask someone to send the gold over.

Miss Ling, Ai Xi called her and said, If your ship comes again next time, stop at Adi first and give me a message.

Ling Qingyu smiled slightly, nodded and said: Okay, I understand, thank you, Ai Xi.

The spices were shipped quickly. Ling Qingyu also purchased 50,000 kilograms of pepper scattered in other places. The price was 20% more expensive than last time. At this time, he could not care about so much. As soon as the goods were loaded, the Fengshen immediately set sail and headed directly to The great light of Myanmar is gone.

Calicut did not meet expectations, and the Fengshen's cargo hold was still less than half empty. Ling Qingyu began to think about how to maximize the use of the cargo hold. Moreover, if there is a fight between Nanbi and the Cholas, the route to India will become unsafe. Then the price of these spices will definitely rise in the future. Should we save some goods this time? The spices produced in India are mainly seasonings. They are not among the goods that will be sold in the Great Zhou Dynasty. You can consider hoarding them in Quanzhou. Moreover, Xie Lian brought so many goods to the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the Fengshen also No need to catch him when he's dumping.

The journey from Calicut to Daguang was smooth and took several days less than when they came.

Ling Qingyu was looking for the same Yangon trading company in Daguang. When she left last time, she asked him to buy some spices and wood unique to this place, as well as fine jade.

The shopkeeper of the Yangon Trading Company is much more reliable than Ai Xi. Not only did he collect a lot of top-quality wood, he also collected a lot of top-grade jade, and he even got 50,000 kilograms of spices from Angkor.

Is the port at Angkor now built? Ling Qingyu asked, touching the top-grade jadeite fondly. There is a distance between Daguang and Angkor, but the price of these spices is really cheap. They are not coming from shady sources, right?

I heard that only a simple dock was built, the shopkeeper said with a smile: The port over there was completely destroyed during the last big disaster, and most of the people died. Many trading houses suffered heavy losses, and the brokers who went to buy spices there also lost their lives. There is a lot less, so some lords have sent the goods to the port themselves, and now they are piled up better.

You still don't have a ship from Dazhou here? Ling Qingyu asked in confusion. When she set off from Quanzhou, she heard that the Xie family's ship was also going to sail. Although the Fengshen's speed was far beyond that of other ships, It has been more than half a year now, and she has circled back from Africa. Why has the Xie family's ship still not arrived?

Yes, we also find it strange. A fleet of ships came from Calicut a few days ago, led by Lady Xie Lian. Apart from this, we have never seen the Xie family's ship, let alone other big ships. Zhou's ship has arrived. When will Mr. Ling come over next? Can we place an order with you? the shopkeeper said.

Well, the time has not yet been decided. If you come here, you must make a deal with the shopkeeper. Ling Qingyu smiled, and then motioned Yang Zhao to deliver the 10,000 taels of gold to the shopkeeper, saying: Then this time, please give it to us immediately In stock.”

It's easy to talk about. The shopkeeper responded with a smile and asked the waiter to arrange the delivery of the goods.

Seeing Ling Qingyu frowning all the time, Yang Zhao asked, What's wrong?

The price is too cheap. The 50,000 kilograms of spices including Baidu Gu, agarwood, and borneol only cost 5,000 taels of gold, which is also 50,000 taels of silver. I always feel something is wrong, Ling Qingyu said, and those jadeite, compared to the above The quality of the first purchase was much better, but the price did not increase. Was it really because of her character that the shopkeeper gave it to her?

I just heard from their guy outside that the price of gold in Daguang has gone up, and the shopkeeper is still lying to you. It's unreasonable. Yan San said calmly. Naturally, they wouldn't be talking next to him. Unfortunately, his hearing was very good. When the shopkeeper went to the inner room to give instructions to his subordinates, he spoke in Dazhou dialect, and he could hear clearly.

Ah! How much has it increased? Ling Qingyu raised her eyebrows. She now has enough gold on the ship, and she also bought a lot of raw gold in Africa, and returned to Fengshen Island to refine it, and there was still a lot of gold.

You can find out just by asking. Yan San pointed to a shop with a large facade.

The shopkeeper still remembered this **** Dazhou woman who used copper coins to buy scrap stones. When he saw her coming to inquire, he smiled and said: If you want to deal with gold, you can really buy more things. At least there can be more stones over there. Buy it for 20%. But if the girl still has copper coins, I also have some spices and jade for sale. I wonder if the girl is interested?

Copper coins! Yes, Ling Qingyu remembered that there were several boxes of copper coins piled up in the Fengshen cargo hold! In other words, gold has increased by 20%, so the price of jade is reasonable, but the price of spices is still not justified.

I wonder how many spices the shopkeeper has here? How much does it cost? Ling Qingyu asked.

I don't have many spices here, but there are some agarwood and a small amount of tassels. The total is only 20,000 jins. If the girl wants it, how about 2,000 taels of gold? the shopkeeper said with a smile.

It turns out the price is really that cheap! Ling Qingyu still felt uneasy and told the shopkeeper that he would send someone over to do the transaction afterwards and asked him to prepare the goods and load them overnight.

The people Ling Qingyu sent over were Zhu Weili and Lamu, bringing with them the remaining copper coins on the ship. When Lamu and the others came back, Ling Qingyu found that the price he bought was actually much lower than what she had negotiated. After asking, they told her because everyone knew about the great Zhou woman's feat of buying stones with copper coins, and felt that it was * ***If you're not blackmailing, then who are you? The price quoted to her before was much higher.

Ling Qingyu felt a mouthful of old blood stuck in his throat and almost spit it out. He vowed never to come to this poor place again!

After setting sail from Daguang, Ling Qingyu, who had been feeling uneasy, called Yang Zhao, Dingdong, Shen and Song Yuchucheng, and told everyone to be alert and guard against wind, rain and - pirates!

On the way from Daguang to the Strait of Malacca, in response to Ling Qingyu's crow's mouth, the Fengshen encountered a severe storm, violent storms, and the Fengshen experienced the fate of being overturned on the wave.

Is everything in the cargo hold sealed? Ling Qingyu asked Song Yu loudly despite the heavy rain.

Everything has been sealed, and there won't be water down there! Song Yu touched the rain on his face, and then his eyes were wet by the rain again. He looked worriedly at Ling Qingyu standing at the door of the helm cabin. Such a heavy wind and rain , is it really okay for the boss to be there?

The sails have all been lowered, and the Fengshen is drifting with the waves. Ding Dong and Shen Zhan control the rudder together to stabilize the direction to avoid being overturned by the big waves.

Ling Qingyu stood firmly on the observation deck outside the helm, issuing orders at any time. Only some of the strongest sailors and sailhands were left on the deck, following her orders to turn the sails and control the ship.

For the first time, Ling Qingyu felt that the snake pill was indeed effective. The boat was overturned so much. She could also control her body shape with the ups and downs of the boat, and she was much stronger. Now she was standing on the cusp of the storm. I feel powerless, but I feel a sense of pride that I have everything under control.

After traveling with the storm for two hours, the Fengshen left the storm circle, and the wind and rain gradually became lighter.

Ling Qingyu's heart just relaxed a little, but after seeing a rickety ship in front of him, he tightened up again and shouted: If there is a situation, be on guard!

Many sailors surged up from below the cabin, and without any confusion, they took their positions with weapons in hand. Ling Qingyu took a step back and gave up the command position to Yang Zhao. Storms are her battlefield, but pirates are Yang Zhao's business.

The ship was swaying towards the Fengshen. When it got closer, it was clear that the ship had tilted slightly by half, there was no one on the deck, and the mast was broken in half.
